Step 1

Store passwords in the vault

End-to-end encrypted to ensure only you have access now, but your family can gain access later.

Step 2

Your death is reported

Heirs report your death to Upon, safeguards are checked, and your vault is released.

Step 3

Loved ones gain access

Beneficiaries decrypt the vault to securely access your passwords.

Ensure your family has access

These assets can sometimes be impossible to access without the original passwords because of end-to-end encryption. Upon helps you pass on the original passwords when the time is right.

Device passcodes

Almost all phones and laptops are end-to-end encrypted – without the original password it's impossible to access your files and photos. This also lets your family access the 2-factor authentication keys on your devices.

Email accounts

The heart of your digital estate. Your email holds important documents, 2-factor authentication, and the ability to reset passwords. Give your family access to missed payment notifications and other important communications.

Cloud storage accounts

Important documents and precious photos are often stored in the cloud. Cloud storage can sometimes be end-to-end encrypted, meaning accessing these documents may be impossible without the original passwords.

Safe and alarm codes

Don't lock your family out of your home or possessions. Store safe and alarm codes or leave instructions for where keys are stored.

Password managers

Passwords change often, let Upon give your family access to your password manager. Store your secret key in a safe, and give your family the final part of your password via an Upon vault.

Cryptocurrency access instructions

Store your crypto on a hardware wallet and use Upon to securely tell your family the pin after your passing.

How to pass on your cryptocurrency

Handling your estate

Your family might not know where all of your assets are, and it can take months to gain access with a death certificate. Give them details through Upon to make it as simple as possible.

Household bills and mortgage details

Ensure continuity by letting your family easily gain access to all things house related. Give them access to accounts, instructions, and documents to make it as straightforward as possible for them.

Banking, investment, and pension locations

Does your family know where all of your holdings are? Help them value and gain access to your estate by listing where everything is and save them many hours searching through old mail.

Important documents

Tax returns, asset purchases, legal agreements, house deeds, you name it. Store it on your cloud services and leave the password in Upon, or even store the files directly in Upon.

Lawyers and accountants

Let your family know who to contact and ensure they speak to the professionals that are familiar with your estate.

Instructions

From how to reset the heating to special requests after your death, leave any kind of instructions. Instructions can also be stored alongside other items to instruct users what to do with certain accounts.

Letters to loved ones

Leave behind something meaningful to those who matter most. You can configure letters and other vault items to only be accessible by specific beneficiaries where preferred.

Social media accounts

Would you like your family to message distant friends, or close down your account entirely? Give them access directly to save them waiting months requesting access with a death certificate.

Contact details

Let your next of kin know who to contact from your friends, colleagues, and wider network to ensure the right people can be informed of your passing and funeral details can be shared.

Questions & answers

How should I pass on cryptocurrency to my next of kin?

Hold your crypto in a hardware wallet, and store your pin and recovery instructions in an Upon inheritance vault. It's fully end-to-end encrypted, and ensures your family will gain access only after your death.

Passing on cryptocurrencies

Can I store files or documents in my Upon vault?

Yes, you can store documents directly in your Upon vault. This is a great way to ensure your family has access to the most important documents such as your will, house deeds, or mortgage agreements without needing to search through cloud storage accounts.

We still recommend storing most documents in cloud storage and giving your heirs access that way, to ensure they have access to the latest copies, and for example to access your photo library.
